76:152 | 2004-06-12 | Linwood Township | Anoka | (record #2004-054, vote 0-7). A brief description and digital images of a large hummingbird at a feeder were submitted; though not sharply focused, the images showed a mostly dark greenish bird with dark blue-purple ear-patches, a blue-purple patch on the lower-breast/upper-belly region, and a slightly downcurved bill. These features eliminated Magnificent Hummingbird and prompted resubmission of the record as a Green Violet-ear (see record #2004-077). consin, and as such were Not Accepted on the basis of origin. Interestingly, three birds (band #4-03, 4-06, and 17-03) lingered near Reno, Houston County, 17-20 April 2004, and the same two females as above (band #3-02 and 15-02) visited Winona County, 24 April 2004; their presence was verified by Richard Urbanek, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and Lara Fondrow, International Crane Foundation (fide R. Russell, Jr.). None of these other 2004 sightings and none of the previous Minnesota reports of Whooping Cranes attributed to the introduction project has been documented, including one at Carlos Avery W.M.A., Anoka County in May 2003, and one in Dodge and Steele counties in early July 2003. Observers are encouraged to document all sightings of this species, including birds from the introduction program, and to report all sightings promptly to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. | Not Accepted | ||||
